Default missing captions which I made (Photo)

Your assumption is correct: captions inside text boxes are not
available for cross-referencing. To put a frame around a figure and
its caption (which will enable cross-referencing), make sure to insert
the figure "In line with text," press Enter, and insert the caption.
Select the caption and text paragraph and then, on the Forms toolbar,
click the Insert Frame button. You can use Format | Frame to set
positioning options for the frame.

I think finally I was able to understand my problem.
I should admit I didn't understand one of your previous replies. You

had
replied in 7/4/2006 8:02 PM PST.
I think the reason these captions are missing is that they are

inside a
textbox and Word ignores them.
Although I was able to figure out the problem, but still can't put

object
and caption insie a frame.
Will be very gratefull if you could kindly address this issue or

direct me
to proper link.
TIA

I'm not sure exactly. There's some general information in "How to

Microsoft Word

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=822005.
You might have a look round the appropriate Data or Options key.

So first step will be to check the registry.
Could you please kindly tell the exact address in Registry to

check and
see
if there exists the caption?

Is something perhaps preventing the Registry from saving the

label?

Thanks for your reply. No I am using same machine and

haven't changed
anything.
Yesterday when I made new caption (photo), they were present

in
caption
dialogue box and I used it for automatic insertion of upto 7

photos
and
cross
referenced them in the text body.
Even know those cross references are alive and when I click

them, word
directs me to captions, but they are gone from caption

dialogue box,
make
it
impossible to add any other photo caption.

Caption labels are stored in the Registry; are you perhaps

handling
the
document on a different machine from the one on which you

created
the
label?

I made a new caption, called "Photo" (As there was no

such a
caption
in
word
default) and used it as caption for some photos. I also

cross
referenced
it
in the body of the paper.
Today when I tried to cross reference a photo number, I

realized
that
they
are gone. Photo captions are nither in caption nor in

cross
reference.
What
has happened and how can I return them?
